Gold placer smelting 4 - disaster is not a single line

"Ahh Not today, one after another breakdown! In the dark, Zhu Yong scolded loudly!

Ghana's night in the house is really out of sight, but to the outside of the shed, because the starry sky is very bright, the outside can vaguely see the situation, Wei Ergou has been dad pickup truck to start the reverse headlights to the generator room, Zhu Yong Lao Wu walked to the generator to check the situation, because the generator was open for a day and the temperature was very high, they could not take it apart to see, they could only give up, and finally discussed it can only be said tomorrow.

At night, everyone used mobile phone lighting to crawl into their beds under mosquito nets in the dark and lay down to sleep. Erica was used to the dark, and it wasn't long before he fell asleep, and he didn't respond when I called him to chat.

In the dark, I saw Wei Ergou and Wei Yiyun walking outside with mobile phone lighting, I couldn't sleep and went out with mobile phone lighting, and saw the two of them sitting at the door chatting, they didn't notice it, I heard Wei Ergou saying, "My mother called me at noon today, saying that my dad was hospitalized and would have surgery in a few days!" Let me hurry back home! ”

I didn't say anything when I stood behind me when I heard Wei Er continue, "But how can I go back to China in my current situation!" I haven't mined much gold today! The generator is broken again! Ay! ”

Wei Yiyun handed the cigarette to Wei Erwei, and the spark of the cigarette butt in the dark was particularly conspicuous, "My uncle-in-law has been in poor health, and it is difficult for my aunt to take care of it alone, if you want to go back, it's okay, we'll wait for you to come back!" ”

"How can you go! Now that the gold mine has just been operational, many things, the excavator still has a loan to repay! Even if you have to leave, isn't your passport still applying for a visa? Why don't you go back to China! Wei Ergou smoked heavily, and the sparks of the cigarette butts were like stars twinkling and twinkling.

"I got my passport back, and the visa has been completed! I forgot to sue you. I walked up to Wei Ergou and said to Wei Ergou.

"That's right, the passport has been completed, and my passport has been given to me." Wei Yiyun reached out and took a bench for me to sit down.

"It's not a passport problem, how can I leave in the current situation! And I can't help when I go back, in the end, it still costs money to see a doctor in this world! I was counting on a high output in the past few days, so I sold the gold and sent the money back, hey, I hope the output will be better tomorrow. Wei Ergou looked up at the starry sky in Ghana, this gold mine owner who was younger than me had mixed feelings in his heart at this time, and the huge pressure and the news of his father's operation made him feel tormented. Wei Yiyun and I didn't know how to comfort him, I looked at Wei Yiyun, he looked at me, and neither of me said anything.

The temperature in the deep mountains and old forests at night drops rapidly, the fog is full of shrouds, the originally bright starry sky is gradually blurred by a layer of white veil, the microclimate also brings a drizzle, accompanied by a large number of mosquitoes flying from the ditch, tonight is destined to be a depressing night.

The next day, before it was completely dawn, I heard Lao Cao shouting, we got up and saw Xiao Cao trembling and moaning, last night the mosquito net was not pulled up, he was bitten by a mosquito and contracted malaria, Wei Yiyun immediately drove Xiao Cao to the Chinese barefoot doctor in Dongkua. I was really afraid of something, last night I saw a large number of mosquitoes flying outside my mosquito net, I was worried about malaria, but I didn't expect Xiao Cao to be infected, the most common disease in Africa is malaria, hundreds of thousands of people die of this disease every year.

At dawn, Wei Yiyun called and said that he was fine, and Xiaocao was already fine after hanging the salt water and taking medicine, but he still needed to hang two more injections. Lao Cao's anxious heart also breathed a sigh of relief, it takes courage to dig gold with his son, because he comes to dig gold to provide better material conditions for his family, and he doesn't want them to suffer, and Xiao Cao is also a child who can endure hardships, younger than Wei Ergou, but he is proactive in his work, not at all like those pampered little emperors in Shanghai. By the time I wrote this text, Xiao Cao's net worth was already thirty or forty million, of course, this is a later story.

Zhu Yong and Lao Wu Lao Cao didn't take much time to check the generator and the generator fault was lifted, and the reason for the failure was that the rat bit off a tubing. Maybe it's because the rats here are used to living a quiet life, and they think our generators are too noisy, or maybe the smell of diesel is so fragrant that the rats think it's food.

Under the leadership of Wei Ergou, everyone continued to work, today by the former army and the rear of the two black workers instead of Xiao Cao to manage the pump, Lao Wu for Lao Li opened an excavator for a while, busy all morning, and experienced the gold groove was gambling, and the excavator was loaded to the fault, the gold output can be imagined, worse than yesterday, not even a little bit! The whole afternoon was spent repairing the excavator and cleaning the gilding groove, so the next day's result was zero! Everyone was disappointed, and even Lao Cao had muttered that it was not our beneficiation and selection that the gold content here was not high at all, and the excavation work of many small stones was more difficult than expected. Lao Li also said that the golden sand layer of this well is very thin, and it is estimated that the output will not be too high, and it rains every night, and it takes a lot of time to pump water and drain it early in the morning.

For Lao Cao and Lao Li's questioning, Wei Ergou didn't make a sound in his heart, but Donai told me and Erijia that the gold layer in this mountainous area needs patience, although it is very thin, but with the excavation, the yield will be good, because after digging, the daily rainwater will silt up the golden sand through the aquifer, so be patient, I don't really understand what Donai means, but I think this is good news. I translated Donai's words to Wei Ergou, who smoked quietly and whispered to me, "It's still old black who can see it accurately!" Persistence is victory! ”

In the afternoon, everyone lost their energy, today's output is even lower than yesterday, maybe not even 10 grams of gold, the pump work has been handed over to the black workers to manage, Lao Wu Lao Cao has no mind, sitting on the gilding trough, wearing straw hats, whispering something to each other.

A sudden rainstorm also interrupted the gold panning operation, in order to prevent landslides, Lao Li also drove the excavator out of the well, and the black workers moved all the pumps out. Everyone returned to the shed, the black workers returned to their grass shed to sleep, and the Chinese stood at the door of the shed helplessly looking at this ghost weather! It's raining heavily in the sun!

There are more and more doubts, and Zhu Yong and Lao Wu also began to wonder if this mountainous area is a good gold digging spot, due to the microclimate, it takes more than an hour to drain water every day, and the rain from time to time in the afternoon adds a lot of trouble to the continuous operation! Wei Ergou's smoking is getting more and more fierce! He's fighting against himself! I glanced at the statue of Lu Dongbin hanging on the wall, and said to myself: It is said that digging gold makes you rich overnight, how do you know that digging gold is so hard! Money isn't that easy to make either! Wei Ergou They are so experienced, they still encounter difficulties, I hope Donai's words are right! I came to Ghana for a golden dream, and I don't want it to end up being a yellow dream.
